Descubriendo la Infancia a través de la Pedagogía Waldorf
Date du début: 28 juil. 2014, Date de fin: 27 sept. 2015 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

The EVS project within the Erasmus+ program is carried out in the "El Moral" nursery school, located in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Tenerife, Spain. This is a kindergarten for children from 3 to 6 years of age, whose main objective is the childrens integral development by a comprehensive education, based on their development not only intellectual but also artistic and practical. Educators at all times maintain a proper attitude, being a worthy role model, because children at this age see and understand the world through imitation and play. Here the volunteers would be part of this process by supporting the work of the teacher (imitating the teachers attitudes that should be displayed in the classroom) and being a reference for the children during the ten months of the school year. Within this framework the volunteers main activity is accompanying the teachers in their preparation and conduct of the classes, Monday to Friday from 8am to 2pm and from 10am to 4pm. The activities to be undertaken by these young people are: collaborate in the morning to welcome the children, help to prepare the breakfast, assist in the activities in class, art activities, field trips, songs, tales, little theaters and play in the garden. All these experiences of the youngsters aim that the volunteers have the opportunity to develop new skills and abilities within themselves, and to let them discover the benefits of the Waldorf education and the antroposophic philosophy. Throughout the course they are instructed through staff meetings, lectures and workshops, in the philosophy behind this teaching method. The young people will learn notions and methods to work with children, especially emphasizing the importance of being a role model for them. The volunteers will have in mind the nature and we encourage them to have great respect for the environment. We offer young people the opportunity to learn not only the Spanish language but they also can realize a multilingual work, because we have children of various nationalities. The relation of the volunteers with the European and Canarian familias increases the intercultural dimension and the European dimensionon of the project by getting to know typical spanish habits with the Canarian familias as well as other customs. Likewise this relationship is bidirectional since the young volunteers are welcome to contribute their ideas and experiences and also to carry out projects related to our work (arts, crafts, gardening, ...) within the ambit of the kindergarten.
